The December issue of Business 2.0 has a cover feature regarding the next
1000 years. Of course they haven't a clue what things will be like in 1000
years, and I don't especially recommend buying the issue; just have a quick
browse and note Ray Kurzweil's extropic contribution.
The best part (and this might only be subscribers--I haven't checked the
newsstands) is an accompanying booklet called "Brainticklers II: Beyond
Y2K--Questions for New Millennium and the Year 3000." The year 3000 seems
ridiculously distant for the ideas involved but there are plenty of
questions that stir up transhumanist reflections in the reader. This
booklet looks like it was inspired (to put it in charitable terms) but
Gregory Stock's Book of Questions.
